The New Orleans Saints continue to see offensive injuries pile up around Drew Brees. Already playing without wide receiver Marques Colston (knee) in Sunday's Week 9 game at the New York Jets, running back Darren Sproles left on the first drive.

Sproles has been ruled out with a concussion, according ESPN, and will not return. He left after taking a hit from the Jets' Antonio Allen on a 2-yard reception from Brees less than a minute into the game.

The initial cause for Sproles' absence was being called an ankle injury.

The good news for New Orleans is that tight end Jimmy Graham was able to play through his foot injury and scored the game's first touchdown on a 51-yard pass from Brees. He carried a defender through the last 10 yards.
